Abstract
The present invention includes a collapsible lighting device comprising: (a) a container having a base portion and optional lid portion, that is adapted to be reversibly moved from a closed position to an open position; (b) at least one light source disposed in the container; and (c) a collapsible envelope of a diffuser material disposed in the container, and adapted to be reversibly moved from a contained position defining a contained volume within the container when the container is in the closed position, to a deployed position when the container is in the open position.
Claims22
A collapsible lighting device comprising:
- a. a container having a base portion and a lid portion, said portions adapted to contain an initial volume and adapted to be reversibly moved from a closed position to an open position;
- b. at least one light source disposed in said container;
- and
- c. a collapsible envelope of a diffuser material disposed in said container, and adapted to be reversibly moved from a contained position defining a contained volume within said container when said container is in said closed position, to a deployed position wherein said collapsible envelope of a diffuser material defines a volume greater than said contained volume and extending outside said container, when said container is in said open position.
A collapsible lighting device comprising:
- a. a container having a base portion and a lid portion, wherein said base and lid portions are of a translucent plastic material and are adapted to contain a space when closed upon one another;
- b. at least one light source disposed in said container;
- and
- c. a collapsible envelope of a diffuser material disposed in said base portion, and adapted to be reversibly moved from a contained position within said space contained by said base and lid portions, to a deployed position upon opening said lid portion.
A collapsible lighting device comprising:
- a. a container having a base portion and a lid portion, each said portion having a concave disk shape and adapted to contain an initial volume and adapted to be reversibly moved from a closed position to an open position;
- b. at least one light source disposed in said container;
- and
- c. a collapsible envelope of a diffuser material disposed in said container, and adapted to be reversibly moved from a contained position defining a contained volume within said container when said container is in said closed position, to a deployed position wherein said collapsible envelope of a diffuser material defines a volume greater than said contained volume and extending outside said container, when said container is in said open position, said collapsible envelope of a diffuser material having a substantially cylindrical shape.
